The ProEXR plugin for PhotoShop can open .vrimg files. If you have LightSelect elements set up, then you can already do what is described in your link.

Thanks Vlado, I am always converting from vrimg -> exr then PS with ProEXR, didn't know you could just open it straight up, thanks.

yeah it's working great with *.vri, well at least with Afx.
the only annoying thing is that we need to rename the *.vrimg to *.vri so that Afx can import it.

The last thing is, does is the speed affected with that?
If you got 20 channels, isn't quicker to load 2 different exr in staid of 1 big one (or*.vrimg) multichanneled that need to read the whole file to pull out only the 2 passes needed?

I think nuke users do use big exr multi-channeled and use only few channels if needed without suffering too much of speed lost, am I right? Is it the same with Afx now?

I dream about having Afx handling quickly multi-channeled vrimg or exr that we can reload in the VrayFB for re rendering crop regions and load back in Afx with all the channels.
